The Graphic Communications Conference of the International Brotherhood of Teamster’s distance education program is a partnership
between the GCC/IBT, GCU Apprentice programs and industry manufacturers
and publishers. Nobody knows the equipment and materials used in our
industry better than those who manufacture it and our members who use
it on a daily basis. This thinking was the foundation of the
development of the Apprentice Curriculum Development Team and the
partnering with manufacturers. With the support of the General Board
and the direction of the International Officers we are delivering an
ever evolving, comprehensive program designed to meet the needs of all
of our members; which provides support and training for a skilled work
force. This multifaceted program will include delivery models
encompassing either web based technology, digital media delivery (CDs)
or traditional books based on the users needs.
All previous classes will continue on April 7, 2008.
